Stunning! 

Looks good. I'd like a little more filling in, decent back curve as well. Not enough breast for me.

Zorra is officially laying now at 6.5 months. I think her first egg was Jan 3rd. It is a slightly lighter brown than the eggs Echo lays. Echo started on 11/26.

Still waiting, I think, on the last girl, a Partridge Chantecler.

Cubakid,
This time, I have to agree with you. Both of these cockerels were only 8 months old when photographed. Dundee the father and Mojo the son. Dundee did fill out and lived to be 2 1/2 till snake bite. Mojo was sold to my regret. They are both gone now but I have F3 Mick to carry on.

I'd like to see pictures of Mick

He is only about 8 months old also right now. When I can I will get some pics of him in the snow. Right now I think his tail is higher than I like them to be, and he is not filled out yet, still too young. I have to breed him to his grandmother and not his aunt or sister so I am holding off right now. He looks more like Mojo in the fence picture than Dundee. The comb is thicker with more shorter triangular points instead of a spindly comb point that I don't like.

Please comment on this roo that I'm thinking of keeping. What do you see here that is good and bad? All comments welcomed.

GREAT! Could use his weight up higher away from the ground, a little more tail to him, and a little longer neck, but as good as any from what I see in these pictures. Do you show? What line/breeder is this bird? I'd like to see more pictures of him and of any females if you have any.
